The approach towards the development of irrigated agriculture as a distinct and in time restricted intervention with predetermined objectives based on agronomic, technical and economic criteria must be abandoned for an open-ended approach to rural development, whereby irrigation is seen as one of the activities of the farm household and whereby the water user and the socio-political conditions constitute important criteria. The supposition that the design of the physical network must take into account wishes and demands of the water users regarding the use of the scheme make their participation a precondition for design. This asks for an interactive and iterative approach to the technical design and consequently the design assumes the nature of a process. Attention must be paid to the nature and structure of this process. In this article the author gives his vision on the consequences of the use of the scheme as the central focus for the design and the design process, based on his long field experience in Africa, the Near East and the Far East.

This paper on Water for Rural Development is divided into two parts. The first part outlines the most important issues from IWMI's point of view on water for rural development, with a focus on developing countries. This part identifies, discusses and provides recommendations for key areas for interventions in water resources development and management in the context of rural development. The second part of the document provides analyses of present and future water resources in the World Bank's defined regions.
